Graph with a line going through points zero comma negative one and two comma negative two.

Select the equation of a line that is parallel to the line on the graph and passes through the point (2, 3).

y = 2x + 4

y = - 2x + 2

y = - 1 over 2 x + 2

y = - 1 over 2 x + 4

Question

Graph with a line going through points zero comma negative one and two comma negative two.

Select the equation of a line that is parallel to the line on the graph and passes through the point (2, 3). 

 y = 2x + 4 

 y = - 2x + 2 

 y = - 1 over 2 x + 2 

 y = - 1 over 2 x + 4

lucaz · Answer

points (0,-1) and (2,-2)
the slope of this line is change in y over change in x
slope = -1/2
from here you can get your answer, because the slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal, -1/2 is the neg. reciprocal of 2

lucaz · Answer

the first option is y=2x+4, 2 is the slope, this line is perpendicular to the line that passes through the given points
